The original creators of Fallout are taking us to The Outer Worlds

From the original creators of Fallout (Tim Cain and Leonard Boyarsky) and the makers of Fallout: New Vegas, comes The Outer Worlds and it looks fantastic.

In The Outer Worlds, you awake from hibernation on a colonist ship that was lost in transit to Halcyon, the furthest colony from Earth located at the edge of the galaxy, only to find yourself in the midst of a deep conspiracy threatening to destroy it. As you explore the furthest reaches of space and encounter various factions, all vying for power, the character you decide to become will determine how this player-driven story unfolds. In the corporate equation for the colony, you are the unplanned variable.

Having read the poor reviews of Fallout 76, this looks absolutely lovely! It is looking like Fallout: New Vegas in outer space and I am totally down with that.

Watch the official announcement trailer for The Outer Worlds, a new single-player first-person sci-fi RPG from Obsidian Entertainment and Private Division.

The Outer Worlds is coming to PC, Xbox One, and yes, PS4. Microsoft had purchased Obsidian this year, but they have has agreed to honour Obsidian’s original contract with Private Division.
